For the U.S., terrorism is okay when it happens to other countries, especially if it assists in attaining geopolitical goals.

What is it that makes young men, reasonably well educated, in good health and nice looking, with long lives ahead of them, use powerful explosives to murder complete strangers because of political beliefs?
